taught to think by someone else's rules
people turn into a gang of fools
minds are
cleansed with verbal doggy doo
all things thought get covered up in school

thought
it was the only way

live by rules of the status quo
wishy-washy and so middle of the
road
do precisely as you're told
"normal people" make my blood run cold

thought
it was the only way
but you didn't really think at all

your mind was a
blank
all your thoughts were suppressed
by the way you were raised
to accept all the
lies
and the vision of wealth
that they shoved into your head
turned out to
be
s--t
thought it was the only way
